If you haven’t recently tested for radon, test again with a long term test. Radon is from decaying rocks which shift overtime so test at least every ten years. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer and is fast approaching the first.

A badly installed vapor barrier in a crawl space allows liquid easy access to your crawl space and your home. It aids mildew, rust, and rot to grow and lets insects and other pests to enter your home.

Even if your home is sealed up tight, you can still have water vapor issues. Living in a space puts water vapor in the air. High humidity encourages mites, mildew, mold, and increases VOC levels and allergens. The best solution is proper ventilation.

Virginia may not be getting the brunt of Hurricane Florence but there can still be serious consequences for water vapor and liquid water intrusion in or even under a home. Stay safe everyone!

'High performance' only walks the talk when it bows humbly before the simple truth that #everythingisconnected. This research tells the tale. And the more complicated a building is, the more things connect in the weirdest ways.

@WDBJ7 👍 Better make sure your homes are air sealed tight to keep those heating bills down and those bitter winds out this winter. 🥶
